Game Of Thrones Season 7: 10 Things You Can Expect To Happen

3. Stark Family Reunion

Starks Reunited Game Of Thrones
HBO

After Bran and Rickon went their separate ways in Season 3, all of the Starks were in different places: Bran went Beyond-the-Wall; Arya was in Essos; Sansa in King's Landing, then the Vale, then Winterfell; Jon at the Wall. Eventually we got a reunion last year, between Sansa and Jon, but that only briefly sated the thirst to see the Starks back together.

Of course, Arya and Jon is the biggie, but just seeing all of the remaining Starks making it back home is going to be a momentous occassion for the series. It's spent so long keeping them apart, it now feels like the right time to bring them back together, even if it's just for a little while.

Jon and Sansa are both already there, which makes the task easier. Bran intends on heading back to Winterfell, while Arya has stated her desire to go home. There's a fair chance both will make it - though neither have an easy journey ahead - and means that, at some point in Season 7, we're going to have the Starks reunited. And it's going to be wonderful (though no doubt the showrunners will find a way of adding tragedy to it).
